Who Stole My Eggs?

At night, Princess Lin stood on the roof, opening his arms to face the wind, with an intoxicated look on his face, “Ah, this is the taste of freedom…”

His personal attendant, Xiao Yue, knocked the wooden pillar loudly and called out: “Princess, please come down quickly. This is too conspicuous. It will be terrible if the night watchman finds out!”

Princess Lin ran briskly on the ridge of the roof and pulled Xiao Yue up. “Stop shouting and allert others.” He said with a tone like an old duck whose neck had been stepped on. “It’s so unpleasant. Come here and let me cool off.”

Xiao Yue looked at the dark surroundings and cuddled up to Princess Lin like a quail. “It’s too dangerous here. Let’s go down and have a rest.”

Princess Lin turned a deaf ear and took out a thin paper bag from the middle of his belt. “Do you know what this is?”

Xiao Yue guessed, “Aphrodisiac medicine?”

“How could it be this big!” Princess Lin gave her a chestnut, “This is the poison given to me by my father.”

“What?!”

Princess Lin smiled, “My father personally summoned me before leaving. I thought he wanted to express his reluctance as a loving father, but he gave me poison. It’s colorless and odorless. It can be mixed in cakes and tea without any trace. After taking it for a long time, people will first suffer from insomnia, then indulge in extreme changes, and will die violently within a few months.”

Xiao Yue was so frightened, she held her breath and did not dare to talk.

Princess Lin unfolded the paper bag and blew lightly on the fine white powder inside, and all the powder melted into the night.

“Princess!”

“What?” Princess Lin clapped his hands, “That old man never cared about me. How did he get the confidence that I would be obedient? He thought that Brother Ah Yun was in love with me, so he ignored the feud between the two countries and let me get married so I could kill Brother Ah Yun. It’s all his dream of taking over Yunzhao Kingdom!”

Xiao Yue whispered, “But in this case, the princess will not have a natal family to support you. If the Yunzhao Kingdom wants to harm you…”

“No,” Princess Lin fully trusted Xie Zuo, “Brother Yunzhao is a gentleman, he will do what he says. Besides, my brother also loves me very much. When the old man fall down, Yuzhao Kingdom will be his. Then when he is crowned as the king, wouldn’t I have a strong backer?”

Xiao Yue suddenly sobbed, “Princess, I am not worthy as your maid. You are obviously the Crown Princess of Yunzhao Kingdom. Don’t you like Prince Yunzhao very much? Why should you give him to someone else? ”

Princess Lin rubbed Xiao Yue’s face vigorously, “Why are you crying? There is no need. I like Brother Ah Yun, but liking doesn’t necessarily mean possessing him. Seeing him happy makes me happy too.”

Suddenly, thunder rumbled. The sound rolled over their head.

Princess Lin raised his head and looked at the sudden appearance of black clouds in confusion, with red lightning flashing faintly in the clouds.

“Let’s go, it’s going to rain.”

.

That night, violent storms and thunder and lightning suddenly came to the entire southern region.

God seemed to be angry, the sea was turbulent, the ground was violently raining, thunder exploded one after another, and the ferocious and thick red thunder and lightning rolled like a mad dragon, which made people feel anxious.

This unusual celestial phenomenon finally woke up Xie Zuo. As soon as he opened his eyes, a loud thunder exploded above his head.

Xie Zuo tensed up instinctively, remembering the pain of being struck by lightning in the abyss.

Huo Yao hugged him tightly and kissed his forehead comfortingly, “Don’t be afraid.”

“I’m not afraid, I just feel my bones hurt again.” Xie Zuo said worriedly, “Do I owe a lot of thunder punishments, will I be punished more when I go back? ”

“No,” Huo Yao was so sure, and Xie Zuo was relieved. He was the Deity of Thunder, and it wouldn’t happen if he said it wouldn’t.

There was thunder and lightning outside, and dark red light flashed from time to time throughout the room.

Xie Zuo asked, “You are in the human world, what’s going on with these thunder and lightning?”

Huo Yao was silent for a while, and then said in a deep voice, “He is angry.”

“Who?”

“Nothing.”

“Who is it?” Xie Zuo said again, a little bit sour, “Your Heavenly Father?”

“No, it’s not.”

Xie Zuo couldn’t stand Huo Yao’s half-hidden words and urged, “Who else could make such a big noise besides your Heavenly Father?”

Huo Yao didn’t want to say anything and was about to deal with him. Suddenly, the bell rang throughout the palace.

Xie Zuo immediately listened carefully.

No more, no less, it was twenty-seven bells in total.

“It’s the death knell, my mother…” Xie Zuo got out of bed in a panic, and the door was banged hastily.

Xie Zuo opened the door, and Mu Rong rolled and fell in. It was hard to tell whether it was rain or tears on his face. “Brother, the queen, she died!”

.

During the day, Bai Hualiang was in excellent condition. Before going to bed at night, she discussed with King Yunlin what clothes to wear when meeting her son and daughter-in-law tomorrow morning. Unexpectedly, all this was just a wishful thinking. She had run out of energy and passed away in her sleep.

Although Xie Zuo was mentally prepared for this matter and knew that Bai Hualiang’s life was approaching, he did not expect that she would pass away so suddenly.

Bai Hualiang’s death dealt a heavy blow to King Yunlin. They were childhood sweetheart, and they had always been very loving. Now that Bai Hualiang passed away, he was devastated and couldn’t afford to live on. He passed away in just half a year.

In just six months, Xie Zuo’s parents, who loved him, passed away one after another. He fell into great grief and deeply realized the impermanence of the world.

After the period of filial piety, Xie Zuo ascended the throne as emperor. Inside the court, there were Mu Rong for literature, Huo Yao for military affairs, and Princess Lin in the harem. The whole Yunzhao Kingdom had great people in government, and the national power was even greater than before.

However, the situation in the Sixteen Southern Kingdoms became increasingly turbulent. Wuzhao and Mengzhao officially joined forces to annex the surrounding kingdoms, and the entire northern region surrendered to them.

In the south, three kingdoms each chose to submit to the Yunzhao Kingdom and the Yuzhao Kingdom. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that these two kingdoms would have a war sooner or later.

Due to frequent wars, Huo Yao had to guard the border for a long time, so he and Xie Zuo became less together and more apart.

On this day, Princess Lin received the bad news that the king and queen of Yuzhao were infected with the plague and died suddenly, and he was asked to go home immediately to attend the funeral.

Princess Lin bid farewell to Xie Zuo, but he did not expect that Xie Zuo would personally send him back to his country.

Both of them knew that if Princess Lin went back this time, he might not come back again.

Princess Lin was very moved. “Brother Ah Yun, my parents died under strange circumstances. The internal situation in Yuzhao is complicated, so you’d better not follow me.”

Xie Zuo said, “It’s because I suspect there is something wrong among you that I have to send you back in person. What should I do if there is hidden danger?”

“My brother has successfully ascended the throne. The other princes can’t do anything, so you can rest assured.”

In front of Princess Lin, Xie Zuo did not say anything clearly. It was that man Yuzhao that he was worried about. According to the information from spies, Yuzhao in the past two years was very abnormal. It was as if it had gone crazy and had done many shocking things in Yuzhao Kingdom. If Princess Lin was asked to go back in such a hurry, there might be something wrong!

Princess Lin’s persuasion was ineffective, so he had no choice but to be accompanied by Xie Zuo back to his home. When passing by the border, Huo Yao, who had just calmed down the war, heard about this and followed without hesitation.

Princess Lin looked at the emperor and general and was a little bit dumbfounded: They went to Yuzhao Kingdom together in such a big way, weren’t they afraid of being blamed for starting a war?

Note:

Princess Lin is a man in disguise, I hope everyone doesn’t forget that and all the crown prince of each kingdom are named after their kingdom.
